This 5K starts from one of the most historic corners of New York: the Church of St. Andrew's colonial parish grounds beside Historic Richmond Town, with LaTourette's greenbelt meadows as the course. It's a small-town race morning inside the big city — church volunteers, neighbors, kids sprinting the last stretch. Add a post-race wander through Richmond Town's preserved village and you've built a proper Staten Island Saturday.
What to expect
Expect a friendly parish-and-neighborhood field, a rolling course through LaTourette Park's paths and golf course edges, and a family atmosphere at the finish. The greenbelt setting is greener than most city races ever get.

What's near the course?
